What factors influence it, what are its characteristics (norms, values, myths, etc.).

All people are listened to by the leaders.]]> 2020-10-17 13:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837645893 Ch. 10 rws594 https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837645952 To avoid the emergence of negative behavior, it can be useful to provide people with an outlet for their frustrations (please feel free to send me an email or to stop by and talk). When negative behavior emerges, it can be helpful to listen ("Shut up and listen" as this week's video put it).]]> 2020-10-17 13:57:41 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837645952 Be Consistent and Hold Everyone Accountable. https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837646070 2020-10-17 13:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837646070 Start by changing behaviors. efilippatos1 https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837647494 Trial and error]]> 2020-10-17 13:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837647494 Higher Ed https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837649234 It's interesting because we're so siloed- different departments within the same colleges even can have very different cultures.]]> 2020-10-17 14:02:16 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837649234 Leaders need to challenge the cultural norms engrained in seasoned members. efilippatos1 https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837649330 Many people resist change and see new leadership and change efforts as a passing phase]]> 2020-10-17 14:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837649330 Culture of my job rws594 https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837650143 We have a series of values and a stated identity of a school, but we largely operate within departments, each of which can operate with a somewhat different perspective. Something a leader could do to address that situation is to foster more interdisciplinary collaboration to prevent us from being so siloed.]]> 2020-10-17 14:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837650143 Organizational Culture Community College krpe239 https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837651731 The organizational structure is a bit scattered where sometimes departments have chairs and staff that are from radically different disciplines. These individuals are often less dedicated or knowledgeable to a particular area of study, so naturally there is often issues with getting things done or understanding the needs of the staff and students within the discipline. Leaders who are multidisciplinary should be more embedded into the areas of study and understand the smaller subteams. Each field of study should have a dedicated leader. Otherwise areas of the department can lack leadership and operate in a siloed manner from the others.]]> 2020-10-17 14:05:32 UTC https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837651731 Approach change from multiple angles efilippatos1 https://padlet.com/efilippatos1/fgqvf1bi3v2btq0c/wish/837654810 I.e. individual support, whole group, smaller groups
